Phoebus report card

REPORT CARD OFFENSE AThe philosophy was grind-it-out, and it worked. From the opening drive, when Shawne Alston carried on 10 of 12 plays, the Phantoms challenged Dinwiddie to stop the run. And the Generals couldn't. Alston finished with 237 of Phoebus' 273 yards, along with two touchdowns.

DEFENSE AThis group is so phenomenal that when it gives up 13 points, you wonder what's wrong. But Dinwiddie runs a no-huddle spread that is tough to handle, and the Phantoms handled it. QB Adam Morgan threw for 252 yards but completed only 46 percent of his passes.

SPECIAL TEAMS BEric Crocker made his second field goal of the playoffs and finished his senior season with 100 points. Punter Paul Morant averaged 26.5 yards on his two punts, neither of which hurt his team. Phoebus gave up no long returns.

COACHING AIn winning his fourth state title in eight years, Bill Dee had the perfect game plan. He knew Dinwiddie couldn't stop his running game. And defensive coordinator Greg Narvid had his usual solid scheme that gave up some yards but not many points.
